Maryland’s Unconstitutional School Discipline Quotas

"Since infraction rates are typically higher among such minority groups, it is only natural that discipline and suspension rates are higher as well, even if that is bureaucratically defined as 'disproportionate impact.' Pressure to discipline minorities and whites in numbers proportional to their percentage of the student body leads to racial discrimination in discipline, such as needless suspensions of white and Asian students for technicalities that would result in nothing more than a warning for a black student."
